Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
The site has good engineering support and well equipped workshop facilities, allowing the team to carry out a large proportion of work in house.
You'll work 12 hour shifts, either 6am-6pm or 6pm-6am, on a rotating pattern of 2-3 days on and off. The rota runs in two week blocks of days followed by two weeks of nights.
What you'll need
- Time served mechanical apprenticeship
- Experience working in an FMCG or high speed manufacturing environment
- Strong mechanical fault finding and maintenance skills
- Welding and machining experience would be advantageous
